Enhance Your Music Experience
Thanks to the Asynchronous USB connection with the MDC USB DSD module we have eliminated computer sound and let music flow freely. The module bypasses the computer’s low-quality DAC, clocks and associated circuitry that cause jitter and distortion by using the high-quality DAC in your NAD amp. Now you can listen to the details and dynamics reproduced from the original recording in their full glory rather than the noise and distortion of the typically mediocre computer audio stages.
24/192 Music
With the ever-growing amount of high-resolution content up to 24-bit/192kHz available for download or streaming, experiencing music as it was originally recorded in the studio or at a live concert has never been easier. The MDC USB DSD enables the playback of DSD files up to DSD256 by converting to 24-bit/192kHz hi-resolution PCM audio. Enjoy the convenience of playing your favourite music from your computer’s USB connection, to stream from the local hard drive, or popular music streaming services such as Apple Music, Spotify, Tidal or Qobuz. The MDC USB DSD is sure to extend the musical enjoyment of your NAD amplifier.
Upgrades Made Easy
With NAD’s unique MDC technology upgrading your system doesn’t mean replacing components, a simple addition of a MDC card adds features as you need them. This building block approach allows your system to grow as your needs evolve.
